Add an Organic Element to Your Commercial or Residential Space with a Living Wall
Vertical gardens are nothing new, but in today’s fast paced world where much of our time is spent indoors, they offer a reprieve from inorganic architecture. You can find living walls or vertical gardens everywhere, from shopping malls to new and renovated commercial buildings, where they offer a visually organic break from concrete and brick in metropolitan areas.
If you have considered adding one to your commercial space or residential patio, they are an exciting and versatile addition that provide many benefits. From cooling the space to providing carbon filtration (and improved air quality), to edible walls for culinary aficionados, our team can help you design and build the perfect living wall for your space.
What Are the Benefits of a Living Wall?
There are many practical advantages to installing an indoor or outdoor living wall, as part of your home or business interior design. We know that some plants help cleanse, filter and improve air quality, and this is true for living walls which can increase the oxygen levels and reduce carbons inside, or around the patio area.
Privacy is another benefit that homeowners and businesses achieve, when they decide to build a living wall. Putting up a fence can create an eye sore but transforming that fence into a vertical garden transforms the privacy barrier into something that enhances your enjoyment instead.
In any patio area, temperature and moisture control is important for comfort. A vertical garden or living wall can help moderate temperatures by absorbing UV energy, rather than reflecting it. The plants will thrive when placed as a sun block and privacy screen on an outdoor patio.
If you incorporate mosquito repellent plants such as citronella, lemon balm, catnip, marigolds and basil. Other plants such as lavender and peppermint provide a gentle aroma, while naturally repelling flying insects. Our goal is to always provide natural solutions that reduce the chemical load on the environment and for the health and wellness of our clients. The living wall is an effective strategy to deter pests.
